Chaco - Comments & Tips

[FICX] The unknown war, which pitted Paraguayans and Bolivians against bordering grounds, was actually an oil war. This chronicle of nonsense is carried out by a group of Quechua and Aymara soldiers, the spoils sent to their deaths. A war in which you don''t die from gunshots, but from hunger and thirst. The desert as the scene of a hostile game, sometimes absurd, like asking some indigenous people if they are Paraguayans or Bolivians. The film is calm, perhaps too. But it contains images that remain.
